[[Removes the icons representing selected drives from My Computer and
Windows Explorer. Also, the drive letters representing the selected drives
do not appear in the standard Open dialog box.
To use this policy, select a drive or combination of drives from the
drop-down list. To display all drives, disable this policy or select the Do
not restrict drives option from the drop-down list.
Note: This setting removes the drive icons. Users can still gain access to
drive contents by using other methods, such as by typing the path to a
directory on the drive in the Map Network Drive dialog box, in the Run
dialog box, or in a command window.
Also, this setting does not prevent users from using programs to access
these drives or their contents. And, it does not prevent users from using
the Disk Management snap-in to view and change drive characteristics.
Also, see the "Prevent access to drives from My Computer" setting.]]
